What's going on in your game?

MightyDavidson · February 14, 2017

So I've decided to start a SOTBPW game for the very first time. At the moment El Demonio is trying to convince Pablo Rodriguez to join La Alianza Del Terror in order to bring the stable back to it's former place as the top rudo group in SOTBPW. Toward this end Dr. Rudo has been brought on board as well, due to being the tag team partner of Demon Seed.

Meanwhile Xtinction, Ultimate Phoenix, Electrico and Scarlet Scarab plan to ban together to fight off La Alianza Del Terror and the Infernal Horde as La Liga de Justicia de Mexico!

Finally the Devious Dr Fang, Major Junta and El Jefe Militar are planning to form a group of their own, hoping to parlay it into membership in La Alianza Del Terror at some point in the future. Or possibly forming a new group, they'd happily work for the Golden Kings, to supplant them.

WWF 1987:

- The Million Dollar Man is working his way up the card (just recently entered Main Event) while engaged in a slow-burn feud with Bobby Heenan over Heenan Family contracts. He's just won the King Of The Ring tournament to become The Million Dollar King and on the same day he and Harley Race helped Andre The Giant finally take the WWF Heavyweight Title off Hulk Hogan. Once DiBiase is ready, I plan on DiBiase buying the title off Andre.

- The Legion Of Doom (Animal, Hawk, Warrior and Sting - all Power and Paint), with Paul Ellering are in the middle of a slow burning storyline which will eventually see Hawk, Animal and Ellering turn on Sting and Warrior. Sting has just lost in the King Of The Ring tournament final, where Harley Race interfered, causing a little aggravation in the LoD camp. After seeing off their knock-offs, Demolition, to cement their legacy, The Road Warriors will now be feuding with The Hart Foundation which will most likely end in a big double-turn event involving Sting and Warrior.

- Brian Pillman is playing the role of Marty Jannetty in The Rockers' storyline, because I like the idea of Pillman being broken by it and running with a crazy gimmick.

- Paul Bearer is managing Vader and The Undertaker in an attempt to get two huge monster heels up to the top of the roster - They're currently in the jobber-crushing stage of their development, cutting regular promos about bringing an end to the cartoon superhero era of WWF. I love a good monster heel, but all the ones in the starting roster were thoroughly uninspiring, except King Kong Bundy who i'll probably keep around the upper mid as a big scalp for up-and-coming faces. Warrior had an injury during his push, so he's a step behind Sting, which should allow Warrior to feud with one of these two, or both, once they're all up to speed. I'm considering sticking with The Undertaker 'Mania streak, possibly a Vader Summerslam streak as well.

- Jake Roberts has just taken the Intercontinental title off of Randy Savage and, after another couple of matches to finish the feud, that will free up Savage for a run at Roddy Piper. This will most likely end in another double-turn because I am struggling to book Piper as a face and I need a top face to replace Piper if I turn him heel.

- The guys who I have absolutely no interest in, or an irrational dislike of, are all struggling obviously; Jim Duggan (jobbing around lower mid), Koko B. Ware (jobbing out the door), Tito Santana (jobbing out the door), Adrian Adonis (Released), Hercules, Beefcake and a load of others, who are making room on the card for guys i'd actually be inspired by in future; Mr Perfect, Rick Rude, Kerry Von Erich, Rick Martel (who is up to his eyeballs on steroids and at 88 SQ), Scott Hall.

I obviously take a lot of ideas from real events and i'm a bit of a stat-whore. I just struggle with the idea of keeping guys with no stand-out talent around, let alone pushing them.

Playing as NJPW in '87 again and Ric Flair just randomly died. I have no idea how it happened and wasn't made aware of it until he was inducted into the Hall Of Immortals. I decided to bring him back to life because his death was way too random to me. It was just weird seeing Ric Flair dead especially 80s flair.

1987, running my own promotion out of the Southwest for fun. I've sent The Iron Sheik to rehab after he wrestled Sgt. Slaughter wasted out of his mind on all the drugs (and yet still managed a C+ match), it improved his morale (he was "Extremely Happy" at my handling of the situation), and made him Loyal to me.

http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/284/922/0e3.png

I had Afa The Wild Samoan and Dr. Death Steve Williams, after several matches that ended in double countouts, have a big Falls-Count-Anywhere rubber match brawl that Dr. Death won (B-). Afa ended up with cracked ribs and simmering tension with Williams (who suffered a morale hit because he was angry at himself for causing an injury). Afa is working through the injury.

Stan Hansen took The Warlord ( a rookie at this time) under his wing as a protege.

http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/284/922/0e3.png

Speaking of Hansen, he broke his toe on my first show in a wild brawl with Bruiser Brody. I'm starting to see a trend here... <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Just started October 2017 and Kota Ibushi won the 2nd annual CWC but lost to Ricochet at Night of Champions in a respectful contest. Ibushi beat Pentagon Jr. in the final, while Zack Sabre Jr and Alex Shelley made up the final four.

Right off the heels of the CWC I've started the World's Strongest Tag Team tournament (obtained in the purchase of AJPW), a 32 tag team tournament. Half way through the first round and TM-61 pulled an upset beating Batista & Titus O'Neil. Called up teams include former WPL Tag Team champs Kota Ibushi & Keiji Mutoh and the current WPL Tag Team champs Katsuhiko Nakajima & Katsuyori Shibata, Angel de Oro & Angel de Plata stepping in for new NXT Tag Team champs Marshall & Ross Von Erich due to injury, and the Briscoes. Favourites for the tournament include Ricochet & Will Ospreay, new WWE RAW Tag Team champs Chris Jericho & Kevin Owens, American Alpha, The Young Bucks and Luke Harper & Erick Rowan.

Other happenings:

Randy Orton returned to WWE after a spell in NJPW, Cody Rhodes joined The Bullet Club, Big E is the new WWE United States Champion, and Seth Rollins is WWE Universal champion, although Kevin Owens (holder of the RAW Money in the Bank) is in the ear of Triple H, telling him he needs to jump on the right bandwagon.

The Owens vs Zayn feud continues after the two were forced to tag together against another reluctant team, Rollins & Roman Reigns. Winners received a WWE Tag Team title shot and Owens was kept in line by Foley who threatened to take his Money in the Bank title shot. Owens & Zayn won and beat New Day thanks to Gallows & Anderson. After some reluctant defenses, Foley told Zayn and Owens to find different partners and a 4 way ladder match was booked, with Jeri-KO walking away with the titles. Without a doubt this is my money feud, love having KO tease cashing in and manipulating HHH.

CHAMPIONS
RAW: Universal - Seth Rollins, AJPW Triple Crown - Shinsuke Nakamura (2), United States - Big E, Cruiserweight - Ricochet, Women's - Bayley (2), Tag Team - Owens & Jericho.

Smackdown: World - CM Punk, GHC Heavyweight - AJ Styles, W-1 Heavyweight - AJ Styles, Intercontinental - Kazuchika Okada, GHC Junior Heavyweight - Neville, SD Women's - Asuka, SD Tag Team - American Alpha.

Just hit November 2017 and here is what's happening:

WWE just hit Global! We also bought out CHIKARA and held a 2 hour tribute show where Sami Zayn became the last CHIKARA Grand Champion beating Scott Parker, and Gargano & Ciampa became the final CHIKARA Campeonatos de Parejas, beating Amasis & Ophidian. Ran it as a B show and also featured Drago, Fenix, Aero Star, Adam Cole, Young Bucks, Cesaro, Kassius Ohno, Asuka, Alissa Flash (Cheerleader Melissa), Candice LeRae & Joey Ryan, Neville, Ricochet, Shynron, Eddie Kingston, Kimber Lee and Chuck Taylor. I had Matt Striker do commentary with CM Punk and Bryce Remsburg. Really wish I could've fit more talent, but there will be a 3 day King of the Trios tournament in March and the winners will be crowned the first ever WWE Trios champions.

RAW:

Seth Rollins continues his roll as WWE Universal Champion. After dispatching Finn Balor then Shinsuke Nakamura, he is now faced with Sami Zayn, who beat Kevin Owens in a final blow off Hell in a Cell match, one year on from their Loser Leaves RAW match. Owens still holds the RAW Money in the Bank.

Big E is still United States Champion. At Hell in a Cell he defended his title in a 6 way against Sheamus, Baron Corbin, Zack Ryder, Adam Cole and current NXT Champion Samoa Joe. Joe earned a called up by winning the NXT "NEXT" Battle Royal. Nakamura won it last year to earn an immediate call up, so right now I'm calling Joe up weekly until he drops the NXT title.

Motor City Machine Guns won the Tag Team titles in their second match, beating Owens and Jericho thanks to Sami Zayn. MCMG are now teasing a heel turn that will culminate in their match against whoever wins the World's Strongest Tag Team tournament (most likely Ricochet & Will Ospreay).

Jay Lethal is now a 4 time Cruiserweight champion after turning heel. the CW division on RAW is stacked with faces, so I needed a top CW to make the switch. He won the title off Kota Ibushi, who had just defeated Ricochet in a ladder match.

Nia Jax is now the Women's champion after coming out a 5 way on top, beating Sasha Banks, Paige, Alexa Bliss and the previous champion, Bayley. Sasha went 1 on 1 at Hell in a Cell but Nia won by stoppage and Bayley made the save. Looking to give Nia a good long run as champ.

CHAMPIONS: WWE Universal - Seth Rollins, WWE Tag Team - Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin, WWE United States - Big E, WWE Women's - Nia Jax, WWE Cruiserweight - Jay Lethal, AJPW Triple Crown - Shinsuke Nakamura.

SMACKDOWN:

CM Punk is in his 7th reign as WWE World champion, winning it in a fatal four way off champion Goldberg. He is now facing a returning Randy Orton at Survivor Series.

Dolph Ziggler is the new Intercontinental champion, defeating Kazuchika Okada at Hell in a Cell. He may drop the title soon to take the title away from the main event scene and back to a true midcard featuring Okada, Cesaro, Cody Rhodes, Drew McIntyre, Kassius Ohno and Tyson Kidd, who are all on the brink of breaking through to the upper card.

Asuka is the current 2 time Smackdown Women's champion, beating Charlotte who was the first woman to win both brand's Women's titles.

American Alpha are still Smackdown Tag Team champions but the tag team ranks continue to grow with the addition of Beer Money Inc and the return of the Ascension. The titles had been revolving around AA, Killer Elite Squad, the Young Bucks and the Hardyz the past few months, but I'm looking to get Luke Harper & Erick Rowan and the Uso's more involved. Clearly the SD tag division is really deep.

Jeff Hardy is enjoying a main event push, having won the Ricky Steamboat Memorial tournament, besting AJ Styles, and then defeating Styles for the GHC Heavyweight and W-1 Heavyweight titles. Styles will continue to chase his titles back, before getting a WWE World title reign in the new year.

Caristico is now the 3 time GHC Junior Heavyweight champion after beating Neville. The title is better around Caristico's waist due to the lack of faces in the division.

CHAMPIONS: WWE World - CM Punk, WWE Intercontinental - Dolph Ziggler, WWE Smackdown Tag Team - Jason Jordan & Chad Gable, WWE Smackdown Women's - Asuka, W-1 Heavyweight - Jeff Hardy, GHC Heavyweight - Jeff Hardy, GHC Junior Heavyweight - Caristico.

WORLD'S STRONGEST TAG TEAM TOURNAMENT:

We're up to the final eight teams, with Beer Money Inc vs Enzo & Cass facing the winner of American Alpha vs Young Bucks, and Ricochet & Ospreay vs Killer Elite Squad facing the winner of the Katsuhiko Nakajima & Katsuyori Shibata vs the Wyatt Family. Winner faces their brand's tag team champion. AA vs Bucks will lead to Bucks winning and claiming they deserve a title shot. Ricochet & Ospreay will go giant killing, beating KES then the Wyatts on the way to beating the Bucks in the final.

SURVIVOR SERIES:

Traditional survivor series will be the agenda! We will see Team RAW (Lesnar, Balor, Nakamura, Owens, Jericho vs Team Smackdown (Ziggler, Ambrose, Cena, Del Rio, and a fifth member TBA... that being Goldberg). If Team Smackdown wins, they'll receive a massive opportunity (spoiler: facing the WWE World champion in Elimination Chamber). I expect Team RAW to go down, with Owens ending the night by cashing in at the end of Rollins vs Zayn - this will go either A: HHH turns on Rollins, beginning Seth's face run, or B: Zayn wins but is defeated by Owens, who he though he was rid of, leading to a third Zayn vs Owens run.

Rock will continue his feud with the Wyatt Family. The Rock will be joined by the Undertaker, Kane, RVD and Kurt Angle vs Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman and Mesias (fka Ricky Banderas).

A cross brand feud is brewing with the Bullet Club (AJ Styles, Gallows & Anderson and The Young Bucks) facing Smackdown's Jeff Hardy & American Alpha, and RAW's Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods.

There will also be a Women's RAW vs Smackdown match, and a RAW Cruiserweight vs Smackdown Junior Heavyweight match.

USPW, October 2016:

Born In The USA! has just ended, and we're on our way to Thanksgiving Thunder and the impending brand split.

World champion Steve Frehley saw off the second challenge from Rick Law for his title. Their first match ended in controversy after Danny Jillefski turned heel and cost Law the win. Jillefski's erratic decisions as USPW Commissioner had been called out by Dawn Gemmell, Law's former manager (she resigned that post so Law wouldn't be directly affected by her questioning Jillefski's authority -- how'd that work out, Dawn?), and their dispute will end with Dawn getting her own brand and show. This particular part of the program was setting Law up as the No. 1 face for what will become Dawn's "National" brand (Unnamed show on Monday nights. The "American" brand is USPW American Wrestling, the Wednesday show.)

At TT, Frehley will defend against Nicky Champion and Marat Khoklov, who fought to a double countout at Born In The USA. Khoklov arrived in late February, joined forces with the Cold Warriors, and targeted Champion immediately. After getting backup from Law for a while, Champion and Khoklov finally faced off 1-on-1 at Independence Day Slam, with Champion winning. Khoklov spent the next few months chasing a rematch and got it.

As far as the split goes, I'm planning a 5v5 Survivor Series-style match with Jillefski and Dawn picking teams, and the winning team will get the first overall draft pick. There will also be a women's 5v5 match, and the entire women's division will go to the winning captain's show.

Nadia Snow returned to USPW and immediately targeted Alicia Strong, blaming Alicia for her departure the first time. Melody got pulled into the fray and lost and regained the Women's title (to/from Alicia) before Nadia won a four-way for the belt at Born In The USA that also included Raquel Alvarado. Nadia has a clean win over Alicia at IDS, and Alicia got it back a couple of weeks ago on TV. They'll break the tie in a 2/3 falls match at TT.

Joss Thompson is my current TV champ, but that wasn't the plan. A match notes mistake caused Krusher Karloff to lose the belt to James Justice (?) on TV. So I had Joss win it in a Triple Threat match against Justice and Tyson Baine. Thompson's storyline has been him targeting all of USPW's longtime veterans, who he calls "talentless" and blames for him having to go to Britain for more than a decade "where my skills are actually appreciated."

Thompson's push is one of my owner goals, along with pushes for Casey Valentine and Jumbo Jackson. For this to work, someone had to turn face and I picked Jumbo because so many of USPW's hosses are heels. He won the National title before he turned, and he's my second-longest reigning champion after Frehley. I've slowed down Casey's push for now, but both of these guys are going to be major players on the National brand.

SWF outbid us for Rocky Golden, but not for Sammy Bach. (They also just lost Remo to SOTBPW and have added Eddie Peak.) Bach's impending arrival ticked off Trent Shaffer, who hates sharing the spotlight. Bach beat Shaffer in his in-ring debut at United States of Pain!, but this feud isn't settled, either.

The tag division's gotten an overhaul and the belts have been moving. I've signed American Demolition (Bulldozer Brandon Smith & Findlay O'Farraday), The Rock City Stars, The Ring Generals and The Dirty White Boys, and created The Money Players (Andre Jones & Julius Moor) and All-American Perfection (Nelson Callum & Kip Keenan). Petr Novak got popped for roids (because of course he did) on my first show, so The Cold Warriors dropped the belts to Natural Storm a week later. American Demolition won the titles in April, but lost to The Towers of Power at IDS, who only held them for a month before losing them to the Dirty White Boys, who just successfully defended in a return match.

Opened a development fed, Legacy Pro Wrestling. Notable names include Ross Henry, Philippe LaGrenier, Logan Wolfsbaine and inaugural champion Hustle Muvva (renamed Jamal Byrnes.)

WCW in typical WCW fashion started negotiating with Ricky three weeks after he became avaliable to negotiate. It's partly my fault for setting his contract to end in the first in-game month but I did the same to Savage and they didn't sign him either. At least they hired Al Snow.

I just finished Survivor Series and I am super excited for the upcoming WrestleMania season. There's gonna be so many twists and turn that I just can't wait to book all of it. A few examples of what's coming up: The Bullet Club will rule the WWE by having all the titles, Dolph Ziggler who left in 2016 due to a low morale is coming back in early 2018 with a big storyline with Triple H, The Rock will battle The Undertaker at WrestleMania, John Cena will drive Chris Jericho to near insanity by stealing his spotlight.... they were both gone for a while (Cena filming a movie, Jericho touring with his band) and they both came back during the same segment in Survivor Series which will kick off a big heel turn storyline for Jericho. So, good stuff.

I am now in the middle of a SWF game that is 2+ years game time. Typically I never played as TCW or SWF. The biggest promotion I usually started with was USPW in previous versions of TEW. I have yet to play a USPW game this year. I keep contemplating a CGC game but USPW probably wont be too fat behind it

Captain2 · February 22, 2017

So I may have managed to build up the worst WCW Invasion angle ever. Even worse than WWFs attempt.

So it started off at Wrestlemania X7. The Rock beat Kurt Angle at no way out to win the world title. Steve Austin won the royal rumble but then Chris Jericho involved himself and joined forces with the reformed Radicalz to beat down Austin and The Rock, stealing the title and promising that if he wasn't added to the title match that there would be no WWF World title match at Wrestlemania. Vince relented and Jericho won the world title by beating both Stone Cold and The Rock.

This is where things started wrinkling. I was planning to roll with this for a few months. Buy WCW and then have their guys come in to make this invasion official. Stacy Keibler was on Shane's arm and whispering things into his ear to build up and foreshadow his eventual leadership of the faction. However on the night of Wrestlemania x7 Dean Malenko was injured for 6 months and had to be replaced. I rolled with it and dissolved the Radicalz. Jericho, Benoit, Guerrero, Saturn and Big Show joined together to be "The Invasion".

Then WCW refused to let me buy it. It is for sale, I just cannot be the one to buy it because the game hates me. WCW started at 50 million in debt. By the time it was for sale it managed to fix itself up to 40 million but instead of being bought like ECW it just won't sell. And it's reducing it's debt more and more. By Summerslam it will only owe 20 million. So it's unlikely that The Invasion is going to be bolstered by actual WCW stars.

Finally. This morning while I was playing Jericho announced he'll be going on tour with his band in three months and he's clearly the centerpiece of the invasion.

I think it's going to die with a whimper.

I took Fleisch's real world data and made RAW, Smackdown, and NXT their own promotions to simulate a true brand war. I took a couple creative liberties to make it work out but for the most part i like how it turned out.

I am getting ready to start a game as Smackdown

JohnnyWrestling · February 23, 2017

About to finish my 3rd year with TNA, and have just purchased all members of the NWA, which included PWG who joined them a few years ago. Initially only did it so I could get the NWA titles for the title history, but thanks to PWG joining they had a few popular workers working forward to them I've decided to do a year long NWA vs TNA feud. Unsure whether this will lead to making the NWA a permanent show or not, will see how the workers grow in the year.

CHAMPIONS: WWE World - CM Punk, WWE Intercontinental - Dolph Ziggler, WWE Smackdown Tag Team - Jason Jordan & Chad Gable, WWE Smackdown Women's - Asuka, W-1 Heavyweight - Jeff Hardy, GHC Heavyweight - Jeff Hardy, GHC Junior Heavyweight - Caristico. WORLD'S STRONGEST TAG TEAM TOURNAMENT: We're up to the final eight teams, with Beer Money Inc vs Enzo & Cass facing the winner of American Alpha vs Young Bucks, and Ricochet & Ospreay vs Killer Elite Squad facing the winner of the Katsuhiko Nakajima & Katsuyori Shibata vs the Wyatt Family. Winner faces their brand's tag team champion. AA vs Bucks will lead to Bucks winning and claiming they deserve a title shot. Ricochet & Ospreay will go giant killing, beating KES then the Wyatts on the way to beating the Bucks in the final. SURVIVOR SERIES: Traditional survivor series will be the agenda! We will see Team RAW (Lesnar, Balor, Nakamura, Owens, Jericho vs Team Smackdown (Ziggler, Ambrose, Cena, Del Rio, and a fifth member TBA... that being Goldberg). If Team Smackdown wins, they'll receive a massive opportunity (spoiler: facing the WWE World champion in Elimination Chamber). I expect Team RAW to go down, with Owens ending the night by cashing in at the end of Rollins vs Zayn - this will go either A: HHH turns on Rollins, beginning Seth's face run, or B: Zayn wins but is defeated by Owens, who he though he was rid of, leading to a third Zayn vs Owens run. Rock will continue his feud with the Wyatt Family. The Rock will be joined by the Undertaker, Kane, RVD and Kurt Angle vs Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Braun Strowman and Mesias (fka Ricky Banderas). A cross brand feud is brewing with the Bullet Club (AJ Styles, Gallows & Anderson and The Young Bucks) facing Smackdown's Jeff Hardy & American Alpha, and RAW's Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods. There will also be a Women's RAW vs Smackdown match, and a RAW Cruiserweight vs Smackdown Junior Heavyweight match.</div></blockquote> Survivor Series has come and gone and Randy Orton is the new WWE World Champion and Kevin Owens left the new WWE Universal champion. Smackdown went 3-0 against RAW winning the Men's, Women's and cruiserweight vs junior heavyweight matches after questionable actions by Nia Jax and Jay Lethal. Bullet Club went down to a combined RAW/Smackdown team in the opener and the match of the night, and The Wyatt's stood tall over a team led by The Rock and Undertaker. Orton defeated CM Punk to capture the title after some botched interference from Kassius Ohno. Team Smackdown won their Survivor Series match and the team will now enter Elimination Chamber to face Orton for the WWE World title. Punk will look to get into the match but will be turned away, and will ultimately take it out on Ohno, signalling Ohno's face turn and potentially a tag team run with Cesaro down the track. Despite being the first man eliminated in the RAW vs Smackdown Survivor Series match, Owens cashed in his Money in the Bank as soon as Sami Zayn completed the fairy tale and won the Universal title CLEAN, only to be attacked by Jeri-KO post match. Rollins and Zayn will both claim a title shot and Mick Foley will book a triple threat WWE Universal match for the next night on RAW. That match we will see Triple H turn on Rollins and side with Owens after months of KO in his ear. This will start Seth's face run and hopefully see, as a result, anyone of Adam Cole, The Miz, Sheamus or EC3 step up and fill in that heel opening in the main event. In other happenings, Ricochet & Will Ospreay won the World's Strongest Tag Team League and defeated Motor City Machine Guns for the WWE Tag Team Titles at Survivor Series. The same night as the WSTT final, MCMG turned hell attacking NXT Tag Team Champions The Von Erichs are an exhibition match. The Von Erichs withdrew from the WSTT due to injury to Marshall, and MCMG were upset about being overlooked for WSTT, so something in them switched and they cheap shot the Von Erichs post match, despite winning. The only other title change - Okada became a 3x Intercontinental champion, reclaiming the title off Ziggler after a distraction by Dean Ambrose in the lead up to Survivor Series. In other news, we are close to signing Kenny Omega and I expect him to move straight to the main roster. He will either go to RAW and join Bullet Club there, and potentially have the dream match we all have been waiting for with Kota Ibushi, or he will go to Smackdown and join Bullet Club there, more specifically The Young Bucks, so we could see The Elite in WWE. One odd thing, Jeff Hardy is rated at 90 pop, holds the GHC Heavyweight and W-1 Heavyweight titles, and his recommended push is Midcarder? <img alt=":confused:" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/confused.png.d4a8e6b6eab0c67698b911fb041c0ed1.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Lot of guys in the high 80's are recommended as Upper Midcarder, so I'm putting it down to his Spot Monkey style and the fact he just turned 40.

The Bearded One · February 24, 2017

I've been playing Fleisch's real world mod from December 2016 as TNA as Jeremy Borash. I decided to have six PPVs per year, starting with Against All Odds in February, which sets up Lockdown in April. At AAO, I have an Elimination Chamber match to crown the No. 1 contender for the heavyweight title to go on to Lockdown.

Here's the results of Against All Odds, which got one of my highest ratings so far at a 75.

<div style="text-align:center;">Cody © defends TNA World Heavyweight Title vs James Storm - 73</div>

One of the first things I did was unify the World Heavyweight and Grand Championship with Eddie Edwards doing the honors. Cody Rhodes won the belt in a triple threat with Edwards and Lashley, who Rhodes had been feuding with since Lashley blindsided Rhodes during an open challenge. Storm recently returned from injury, blasting Rhodes with a beer bottle after Rhodes successfully defended his title on Impact, setting up this match.

<div style="text-align:center;">Against All Odds Elimination Chamber

Stu Bennett defeats Drew Galloway, Ethan Carter III, Eddie Edwards, Lashley and Bram - 68</div>

Stu Bennett is going on to Lockdown after I brought him in early in 2017 to have a credible heel. I'm currently overrun with babyfaces, so having him solidify the top of the card on the heel side, and be No. 2 on my franchise players list, means big things in his future. He has been feuding with Drew Galloway in a filler feud for both.

ECIII was in a great feud with Abyss that wrapped up a couple weeks prior in a last man standing match for a spot in the elimination chamber. It started with ECIII beating Abyss in a TV Title tournament, and then Abyss making his life hell afterward. Eddie Edwards and Lashley earned their spots as a last chance to get back to Cody Rhodes. Bram was just a sixth guy I needed in there, and he brought the match down. Oh well.

<div style="text-align:center;">The Briscoes defeat the Hardys for the TNA World Tag Team Titles - 67 </div>

This was supposed to be a ladder match, but Brother Nero refused to do it because he would get injured, so I had to opt with a normal match. The Briscoes were among my first outside hires, and they've been getting built up since early December. Hopefully I can have the ladder match in the future. I plan on splitting the Hardys with Brother Nero going back to Jeff, and Matt Hardy going even crazier, leading to Lethal Lockdown. The Briscoes will eventually move on to feud with the Wolves.

<div style="text-align:center;">Mike Bennett defends the TNA TV Title against Aron Rex - 65</div>

Despite getting rid of the Grand Championship, I still wanted a midcard non-X Division Title, so I held an eight-man TV Title Tournament, and Mike Bennett won it over Davey Richards in the finals. He's defended it several times in a decent feud with Moose. Rex had been piling up wins, and requested a title shot at the Against All Odds. I'm not sure where Rex goes from here. Maybe a heel turn since I'm still lacking in that department.

<div style="text-align:center;">Rey Mysterio defeats DJ Z for the TNA X Division Title - 64</div>

I'm trying to build up the X Division and needed an established star to carry the load while the other wrestlers gained popularity, so enter Rey Mysterio. He debuted to big fanfare, much to the chagrin of DJ Z, who as X Division champ thought the spotlight should have been on him. Basic feud, but I needed to get the belt on Rey to boost the prestige.

<div style="text-align:center;">Will Ospreay defeats Tigre Uno, Mandrews, Trevor Lee and Andrew Everrett - 44</div>

This was an X Division showcase match and Ospreays debut. He got the big win and will transition into a feud with DJ Z to get more overness. No story to this match other than getting some guys together to do flippy moves.

<div style="text-align:center;">TNA TV Title No. 1 Contedership Battle Royal

Roderick Strong defeats Caleb Konley, Moose, Davey Richards, Tyrus, Eli Drake, Braxton Sutter, Jessie Godderz, Robbie E and Aiden O'Shea</div>

I signed Roddy away from NXT about a month before AAO and I've been giving him wins on the B show since. This was just a way to get him more overness and onto the A show, where I think he'll capture the TV Title sooner than later.

Caleb Konley was the last wrestler eliminated. I paired him with Scarlett Bordeaux and they've got great chemistry and a good thing going. Moose had the most eliminations.

This has been a fun save so far. I'm excited to get on the road to Lockdown, which will be main evented by Cody Rhodes vs Stu Bennett.

Pseudo · February 24, 2017

I just started a new game with TheWho's Feb 2017 mod, slightly modified so that the entire world adheres to the young lion system (just because I think it's cool and interesting).

I started a local traditional puroresu federation that has gender integration (a weird combo I know but I'm being experimental here:cool:) based in the Tri-State area. A single elimination tournament was held to crown the first federation champion and Amazing Kong won. She's had a few title defenses since then and has successfully held it, though she's starting to get offers from competitors so I might shift the belt to someone else.

The current event my federation is running is a round robin tournament with a maximum weight class of lightweight. Becky Bayless is currently leading in points. The tournament's been plagued by injuries, probably because my avatar wrestler, Mr. Dark, who's a high potential, low-skill scrub is participating.

MaseMan · February 26, 2017

Update on my WWF game: It's now 1995. I recently turned HBK and Diesel face. This went over very well. Had HBK win the Rumble, and was gearing up to have him face Owen Hart for the WWF Championship at Wrestlemania (Owen beat Bret for the title, after a lengthy feud, in a cage match in December). Well, just had an innocuous tag match on Superstars, where Diesel/HBK took on Men on a Mission. HBK came out of the match with a broken leg! No note blaming any worker. He's out for five and a half months. This comes on the heels of 123 Kid suffering a bruised tail bone in a match, which took him out for about a month. I still have Razor Ramon sidelined with a severe concussion.

Is it just me, or do injuries happen more frequently than in TEW 2013? I have frequency set to "medium". I want to keep things realistic, but this is sure making it hard to plan ahead.

Is it just me, or do injuries happen more frequently than in TEW 2013? I have frequency set to "medium". I want to keep things realistic, but this is sure making it hard to plan ahead.

It's not just you. The injury frequency was increased from TEW2013 because it was unrealistically low. I tried playing with the medium injury frequency in TEW2016 (as it was the default value), but I still didn't get enough injuries. I prefer "high" frequency, "extreme" was a bit much

Bluestillidie00 · February 27, 2017

Finally ran the first ever WWE Global League, my version of the G1 Climax, which saw 10 Superstars from RAW, and 10 from Smackdown Live compete in two League formats with the top two from each Block going through to the finale. The winner gets a title shot in the main event of Summerslam.

was won by Finn Balor who went undefeated. Finn is basically an unassigned figurehead for me, he is the most popular worker in the world, and has very recently turned face and will be winning the World Title very soon.

• Note I had to run this event twice due to me making a mistake editing my product and destroying my popularity. Because of this, all screenshots are outdated. The final match grade was exactly the same though.

<img alt="c8SCeEr.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/c8SCeEr.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Austin Cole (ADAM COLE BAYBAY) and Chris Jericho had the best match of the Group Stage drawing an 86 rating, which was a massive surprise given how Jericho has done nothing of note recently, and Austin Cole is still getting a push. It was the heel Bulletproof BC duo Dean Ambrose and Austin Cole (BAYBAY) who qualified from the WWE Raw Live bracket, while former Bulletproof BC memeber Finn Balor, who had been kicked out of the stable days days before the conclusion of the tournament by AJ Styles and Luke Gallows qualified alongside Shinsuke Nakamura for Smackdown.

Onto the finale. It was Dean Ambrose vs Shinsuke Nakamura to open the show and the Semi-Finals. Both men tore the house down narrowly missing out on a perfect match, but it was all over after Dean Ambrose hit a Dirty Deeds to Nakamura in 28 minutes. Ambrose qualifies for the final.

<img alt="z633grH.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/z633grH.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Next up is the United States Champion Austin Cole (BAYBAY) who faced off with Finn Balor. Prior to this event, Balor had taken part in four of my best 15 matches, while Austin Cole has been in fantastic form in recent weeks. Balor emerged victorious in just under 29 minutes. This match was quite disappointing as both men just didn't seem to click, but an 76 rating is good enough.

Recent RAW signing Zack Sabre Jr debuted and has set things alight. In just under three weeks The Technical Wizard knocked Rusev, Baron Corbin and United States Champion Austin Cole in a non-title match. This earned the young brit a title shot, which ended via countout after Austin Cole (BAYBAY) walked out mid-match. He faced off with Smackdown’s WWE Universal Champion, the man who has competed in my three best matches, the Phenomenal AJ Styles. Unfortunately the face that runs the place too much for Zack Sabre Jr, and AJ pinned Zack with a Springboard 450 Splash in just over 15 minutes. Despite this, Zack took AJ to the limit and AJ even suffered an injury in the process. A 95 rated match is fantastic for someone of ZSJ’s overness.

<img alt="iWtW2BT.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/iWtW2BT.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Following Highlight Packages, elaborate entrances and other gimmicks, it was time to start the final. Refusing to shake hands with his former Bulletproof BC brethren and current WWE Champion Dean Ambrose, Finn Balor started the match aggressive, immediately hitting a dropkick into the corner, looking for the Coup de Grace. The two men traded key moves and near pinfalls. Finn hit a 1916 followed by a Coup de Grace to the back of the head, but failed to capitalize on the cover in time, and Ambrose managed to pop a shoulder up. Ambrose hit a knee trembler, before hitting a Headlock Driver on the apron. Finn took a stunt bump, while Dean took a crazy bump, but it all paid off after 34 minutes, and 32 seconds, just over halfway through the time limit, Finn hit all his signature moves ending with a Coup de Grace and pinned the WWE Champion. A 100 Rating. My first 100 rating in TEW history. Finn Balor has done it. He overcame two Bulletproof BC members in one night, in two fantastic matches to earn the right to face Universal Champion, the leader of Bulletproof BC, and the man who kicked him out of Bulletproof, AJ Styles in the main event of Summerslam. A 96 rated event, which makes it my highest rated event, and pushes me up to International. All in all, worth the 19 days of Booking.

chinoflynn · February 27, 2017

I'm currently playing as ECW, it's December of 97 and we just had the first PPV of the game.

I've added a user character alla Jack Avatar-Esq named Chino Flynn. The backstory for my game is something like this; Flynn ran and was the star (of course) of an indie promotion (DaVE) in Maine, creating a little buzz in the New England region. Looking for more talent and help as the third front in the Monday night wars, Paul E. Went to see what the hype was about. In front of the hot crowd (read 23 drunk people) Flynn and company put on one hell of a show, impressing Heyman. After conversations over a few days Paul knew they had much in common in their booking style and philosophy in wrestling, it also helped Flynn had a rather large nest egg (ching ching) to back his own promotion that now could be invested into ECW. With thier agreement on Flynns new job as Booker for ECW Paul asked if there was anyone from DaVE that he wanted to bring in. The only name he had was his buddy and prime rival, Nick Berk. After thinning the roster, renegotiating with most of the remaining roster, then bringing in New talent with plans on trimming the fat even more after doing the job and putting over the new blood, Flynn got down to booking.

Here's what's going on in ECW;

The War Machine vs The hardcore chair swing in freaks : the war machine is Abyss and a masked Apocalypse managed by Dawn Marie with a dominatrix gimmick. This Is one of those fueds to get my new boys over. Axel is a drunk and hard drug mess that I'll be getting rid of after this. I love The War Machine and have plans for them to become the dominant team around while forming a stable around them.

The Wow Factor w/ Missy Hyatt vs Those Other Dudleys : The Wow Factor, the team of Nick Berk and Chino Flynn came out of indie obscurity managed by Missy Hyatt ( in hopes Flynn can establish a relationship with a boyhood crush) to attack who Flynn dubbed those other inbred Dudleys, Spike and Big Dick. This fued is two fold, for putting my team over and for setting up Big Dick Dudley being taken out by War Machine and coming back as of yet unamed Masked monster to join the stable.

the hardy boys w/ Beaulah Mcgillicutty vs the FBI : One thier first night on ECW tv the hardys led by thier cheerleader Beaulah, captured the tag team titles from the FBI, solidifying the fact anything really does happen in ECW. This has multiple purposes. I wanted a good young team of faces to bring in a fued for the Dudley boys who have been absent from Tv. I also want to change little Guido to Damien stone with a man on misson gimmick and prime him for a push. Leading me to job out Tracy smothers in this fued and release him.

Noticing a trend here? But I digress.

Justin Credible w/ Chastity vs Terry funk (and others) : I'm a JC mark (I restarted a game when my uc had zero chemistry with him, no joke). He's out to prove himself and he's beating people up on a weekly basis, Chris chetti, Roadkill etc. Finally stepping up to stop him Will be the legend Terry Funk. I wanted this fued to start with Funk losing with a tainted quick roll up then JC beating people up and Funk coming back to even the score but Funk was furious at the booking. So we will build Credible up then put him over near the end of Dunks contract no matter what towards a push for the a tv title.

RVD w/ Bill Alfonso vs Taz : Taz holds the Tv gold and heel RVD wants it. This Feud will last a couple of months if not longer, being the bread and butter of ECW. I'm the end, RVD will go over Taz and become the new TV champion. A handshake Will ensue causing and RVD face turn and gimmick change as they have already gone to a draw and RVD refused the handshake once. This sets up RVD for his long TV Title reign and pushes Taz towards the world title race.

Bam Bam vs Shane Douglas w/ Francine and The Impact Players : this is for the world title. The game started with Douglas just having won the title at The PPV before the game started. Each week Bam Bam has beat or attacked members of Triple threat, Shane douglas, Chris candido and Lane storm (The Impact Players). Shane has been off tv since winning the championship (ppa contract, saving some cash when I can) so at the PPV it was bam bam vs the impact players in a handicap match where they were set to win via help from the returning champ but Bam Bam was furious at the booking so I had to put him over them instead. Minor setback, just makes another storyline a little different, but I'll get to that. Woth Bam Bam on a written contract, at the end of this Feud Bam Bam we'll go over and win the title leaving Douglas off TV for a little bit. All have Bam Bam and Tess team up 4 a couple of weeks until a bam bam heel turn setting up the test Feud for the title. This should bring me close to the end of Bam Bams contract allowing Taz to more than likely go over with the help of returning shane douglas and release him. Setting up the Douglas Taz fued.

The Sex Generation vs The Impact Players : The sex generation is a face stable of Sean Casey with a porn star gimmick, and the Tag team The Backseat boyz; Trent Acid with a punk gimmick and Johnny Kashmir with a bad ass gimmick. All managed by Kimona Wannalya with the playboy gimmick. Sean Casey isn't fairing to well, even tho being the "leader" he's the jobber of the group. The Backseat boyz have had success and recently went over the Impact Players alla 123 kid style. This field has been altered due to Bam Bam and now Will have the impact players going over until the big win, I like the team of acid and Kashmir but the former had a drug problem. I also like candido and storm but the former has a bit of personal problems and the latter has no charisma. So I'm still in the fence.

That's the current state of ECW storylines. I'm a bit of an on the fly Booker so even tho I have plans, I don't really know what I'll do next. Especially with the curve balls the game throws at me.

I tend to play an "iron man" type of game where whatever happens happens and I don't save scum when booking shows.

I apologize about misspelling. I'm not cell phone and auto correct is horrid

Playing 1994 WCW:

Champions as of November 1994:

WCW World Heavyweight: Ric Flair

WCW US Heavyweight: Sting

WCW World Tag Team: The Steiner Brothers

WCW World TV Title: Meng

I got into reading the Wrestling Observer Rewinds on Wreddit and then diving into them myself. So, I kind of wanted to do the opposite of everything Meltzer said WCW was doing wrong. This included a focus on production and live events. $$$$ (Thanks, Ted).

That also means slow burning Hogan vs Flair. To try and get any heel heat on Flair, Ruc says that Hogan has to start at the back of the line with everyone else. Hogan, in pure babyface form, says he'll do whatever it takes. Not sure if that would actually work, but the segments were great.

Flair also calls the Horsemen to Arms and Arn turns Heel and is joined by Steve Austin and Dustin Rhodes. This builds some extra heat for Flair as Dustin turns on Dusty. At this point, the idea would be if people won't hate Ric for going against Hogan, they'll hate him for having Dustin turn on Dusty.

In the middle of October, Savage joins Hogan and they have a once-in-a-life-time match against Arn and Flair at the Pepsi Center in Denver. 5*/100 rating (despite Flair being high on drugs ... -_____-). It's about this time that WCW is really finding their sea legs with their story telling.

It's at this point, WCW is finding their sea legs. They've thrown tons of money at production and live events. The arrival of Savage has helped the Hogan angle and the newly debuted Monday Nitro see steady 90 ratings without giving away major future matches.

The US title Feud intensifies:

Ricky Steamboat defeated Steve Austin for the US title and the two are in a massive feud following the win. The feud is "over" but Austin won't let it go as he wants to get his title back. Back and forth we go until a Fatal Four way is announced for Halloween Havoc between Vader vs Sting vs Steamboat vs Austin ... ... ...

poor Steve. Sting wins the title and in the rare circumstance, we have the heel chasing the title. Rumors as this is setting up Austin vs Sting at Starrcade.

The Tag Title Scene

The tag team scene is really finding their footing too. Steven Regal and HHH have incredible chemistry and EVERYONE hates them. They've yet to be in a straight match against the Steiners .. rumors are this is planned for Starrcade. Harlem Heat is in a massive feud with the Nasty Boys, but Jerry Sags tore a pectoral, and is out for 2 months. They might not be ready for the planned Street Fight come Starrcade.

The TV title Scene

DDP won the TV title had has put the title up as much as he can. However, the amount of surprise wrestlers showing up and everything have caused him to become paranoid. This led him to hire Meng to be his special enforcer. Meng accepts, but eventually costs DDP a match and attacks him afterward. DDP vs Meng vs Big Rig Ray Traylor at Halloween Havoc sees Meng win the title. Rumors are they're giving DDP some time off, he'll show up at Starrcade wanting a rematch with Meng.

Note: I love this because Meng needs some love, I may just let Meng have the tv title forever. Plus this lets me get an early start on moving DDP into the people's champion role.

cultstatus · February 27, 2017

Started a game as WWF using the 1991 mod. Just finished SummerSlam 1993. Ran a massive 15 match card that got a 100 rating.

Sting defeated Vader to win back the WWF title and became the first person in WWF to pin Vader.

The Mega Powers reunited and defeated LOD to win the tag titles

Shawn Michaels defeated Ric Flair

Undertaker defeated Ted DiBiase. The stip was if DiBiase won, Taker would have to go back into his service, if Taker won, DiBiase would leave the WWF.

Hollywood Blonds beat The Steiner Brothers

Mr. Perfect, Roddy Piper, Big Boss Man, Ricky Steamboat, and Jushin Liger beat the Hart Foundation(Bret/Owen/Bulldog/Benoit/Neidhart)

Razor Ramon retained the IC title by beating Mankind

Shane Douglas retained the European title by getting intentionally DQ'd against Dustin Rhodes

Ron Simmons, Konnan, and Harlem Heat beat Jarrett, Roadie, and the Faces of Fear

Aludra Blayze won the Women's title for the 3rd time beating Manami Toyota

Muta, Tatanka, and The Patriot beat Rick Martel and the Quebecers

Marc Mero beat Bam Bam Bigelow

Yokozuna and Crush beat the Nasty Boys

William Regal beat Savio Vega

1-2-3 Kid retained the cruiserweight title by beat Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, and Ultimo Dragon in a fatal four way. After the match, 2 Cold returned from rehab and turned heel, attacking Kid.

And finally on the pre-show, Adam Bomb won a 20 man battle royal and Bull Nakano, Akira Hokuto, and Luna Vachon beat Jacqueline, Sindy Paradise, and Malia Hosaka.

BigT · February 27, 2017

Montreal Aftermath

Currently in Jul 98.

Following the screwjob Owen entered a feud which lasted until WM, going over against HHH and then winning the RR to set up a WM ME against HBK. However, he came up short. This then enabled Austin vs HBK to be set in motion, with Austin finally going over HBK at KOTR. HBK has now been sent on three months leave, and will be back in time for an angle at survivor series. This enforced break will give me a chance to sort out the morale in the locker room, which HBK has done his best to destroy with turning people against Owen and Vader. HHH is set to enter a feud with Austin, assisted by a newly formed DX which will include X-Pac and Too Cool, who have just been brought up from development.

NAO have just dropped the tag titles to Ahmed Johnson and Vader.

The Rock is in his third run with the IC title and has just entered a feud with Mankind (who just won KOTR). Plan is for The Rock to leave the IC title behind before too long. He is now recognised as the second top man in the company behind Austin, pushing HBK into third. Likely to remain heel for the longer-term, as the build up starts for Austin vs The Rock at WM in 99.
